THE MODERN STORY-TELLER: OR THE BEST STORIES OF THE BEST AUTHORS NOW FIRST COLLECTED
New York: G. P. Putnam & Co. 1856. 12mo pp. 324 original decorated gray green cloth stamped in gold and blind. First edition. "Putnam's Story Library" at head of title. An anthology of twenty-two tales by unspecified authors: "the best selections from the standard story literature of the English language" according to the editor's preface. Most of the material appears to be British. "The Sultan's Bear" from CHAMBERS'S EDINBURGH JOURNAL is an amusing oriental satire. "The Ghost-Raiser" from HARPER'S is a clever tale of a confidence scam. "The Pierced Skull" is a murder mystery; "Our Major's Story" is a tale of somnambulism. Other material is sentimental romantic etc. This is one apparently the first of several books at least five in "Putnam's Story Library" series. Wright II 1727. Mild shallow chip from cloth at upper end some tanning and foxing to text block a very good copy. Superior condition for this book. A scarce book. #157441 G. P. Putnam & Co. unknown

TALES OF FAIRY LAND; OR LEGENDS OF THE OLDEN TIME .
London: T. Richardson 1830. Small octavo pp. i-v vi-vii viii 1 2-312 inserted frontispiece and engraved title leaf original decorated brown cloth front and rear panels stamped in blind spine panel stamped in gold a.e.g. yellow coated endpapers. First edition Engraved half-title has additional publication details "London Charles Daly 19 Red Lion Square" which may indicate an earlier edition by Daly. This very popular collection of Romantic and Gothic tales does not appear to have been published prior to 1830 and the single institution recorded as having a copy of this Richardson edition misdates it 1890. This edition most likely was published in the mid to late 1830s or very early 1840s. This anonymous anthology collects nineteen stories including "The Black Spider" "The Spectre Barber" by Musaeus and "Peter Schlemihl" by Adalbert von Chamisso. This collection was reprinted from the same plates with additional illustrations by William Milner of Halifax in 1844 as TRADITIONS AND LEGENDS OF THE ELF THE FAIRY AND THE GNOME and later as TALES OF FAIRY LAND; OR LEGENDS OF THE OLDEN TIME. Not in Bleiler 1948; 1978 Reginald 1979; 1992 or Locke Spectrum I-III. Not in Block Sadleir or Wolff. 10 mm split in cloth at lower edge of front cover corner tips just a bit soft a very good copy.

GHOST-STORIES; COLLECTED WITH A PARTICULAR VIEW TO COUNTERACT THE VULGAR BELIEF IN GHOSTS AND APPARITIONS AND TO PROMOTE A RATIONAL ESTIMATE OF THE NATURE OF PHENOMENA COMMONLY CONSIDERED AS SUPERNATURAL .
London: Printed for R. Ackermann 1823. 12mo pp. i-v vi-xx 1 2-292 six inserted plates with hand colored engravings rebound in early three-quarter dark green leather and marbled boards spine panel elaborately tooled in gold and blind all edges marbled marbled endpapers. First edition. A "collection of contemporary fiction based on the theme of false supernaturalism. In some cases the seemingly supernatural is an accidental event that is misinterpreted in other cases it is fraud or imposture. The stories most of which are short sometimes narratives rather than formal short stories are probably reprinted from various collections and periodical sources. Some are obviously of foreign origin. The publisher Ackermann is renowned for his beautiful books containing colored mezzotints and the present volume is attractively illustrated with six colored plates . This British edition does not seem to have been popular probably because of its editorial position. In America however this book was soon reprinted and it went through many editions on up to the middle 1860's." - Bleiler The Guide to Supernatural Fiction 689. Bleiler 1978 p. 8. Not in Reginald 1979; 1992. Block The English Novel 1740-1850 p. 83.

Unlike the later American edition popular and reprinted many times the British edition appears to have achieved little commercial success and is elusive. #151806 Printed for R. Ackermann unknown

MAGA STORIES
New York: G. P. Putnam & Son 1867. Octavo pp. 1-5 6-325 326-328: blank note: last leaf is a blank 4 inserted leaves with publisher's ads printed on pages 2-3 and 6-7 remainder blank flyleaves at front and rear original decorated green bevel-edged cloth front panel stamped in gold and ruled in blind spine panel stamped in gold rear panel ruled in blind fore-edges partially untrimmed gray coated endpapers. First edition. Issued as part of "Putnam's Railway Classics" series. The stories with one exception are reprinted from PUTNAM'S MONTHLY a critically acclaimed but short-lived magazine 1853-1857 that showcased American rather than British writers who dominated the industry-leading HARPER'S MONTHLY though the present volume gives no author attributions keeping up the old tradition of anonymous authorship in periodicals. A mixed collection that includes fantasy stories: "Found and Lost" a dream story set in 1824 of the discovery of the source of the Nile faint echoes of Poe as well as Howard's classic "Three Miles Up"; "My Three Conversations with Miss Chester" an occult romance about magnetism and controlled dreaming; "Tolliwotte's Ghost" a rationalized humorous ghost story; "The Legend of Goodman Poverty" a humble man outsmarts Death; "The Double Veil" a macabre fantasy about cats rationalized as a nightmare; "The Old Woman Who Dried Up and Blew Away" in which a bitter old woman gives herself to the Devil; "Uncle Bernard's Story" an allegorical "fairy" story; there may be others. Most of these tales are "round the fire" stories and are religious and moral in tone but imaginative and pleasantly written overall. The collection was reprinted the following year as FOUND AND LOST AND OTHER MAGA STORIES. This first printing is quite scarce. With such a high proportion of fantastic material this book should be better known within the genre. Wright II 1650. Small paper defect to lower margin of leaf 3 several leaves roughly opened with shallow loss to fore-edge margins else a nearly fine bright copy. A pretty copy of an uncommon book. #149747 G. P. Putnam & Son unknown
